Lucius Julius Caesar (ca. 135 BC–87 BC) was a consul of the Roman Republic in 90 BC. He was involved in the downfall of the plebeian tribune Lucius Appuleius Saturninus in 100 BC. He was elected praetor for 94 BC without having been quaestor and aedile. Later he became governor of Macedonia. During his consulship, he defeated the Samnites.〔Theodor Mommsen History of Rome vol. 3 (book 4)〕 Lucius proposed legislation (one of the ''Leges Juliae'' or "Julian laws") granting Roman citizenship to allies who didn’t participate in the Social War against Rome in 90 BC. Later he became censor and due to the success of the Julian Law, became responsible for allocating new citizens into voting districts. His colleague in this task was a former consul, Publius Licinius Crassus Dives (consul 97 BC) (father of triumvir, Marcus Licinius Crassus). Lucius and his brother, Gaius Julius Caesar Strabo Vopiscus, were killed together in 87 BC at the beginning of the Civil War by partisans of Gaius Marius. They died fighting in the streets. According to Livy, their heads were exposed on the speaker’s platform. His children, by his wife Fulvia,〔Napoleon III. (''Histoire de Jules César'' Volume 1, p. 253 ) Paris: H. Plon 1865〕 were Lucius Julius Caesar, who was consul in 64 BC, and Julia Antonia. == References == * His coinage: http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/rsc/julia/i.html 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lucius Julius Caesar (consul 90 BC)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
